Advantages: Thin, comfortable

Disadvantages: Lacking in quality of features

Yes, SAMSUNG has set the record, of producing the thinnest mobile in the world, of a mere 6.9mm. As a matter of fact, you wouldn't believe how thin this is until you touch this work of 'miracle' - because who would have thought a moblile could be this thin and functional?

And there are pros and cons of being this anorexic. Here are some of the cons and pros;

It has a small screen of 1.8inches, and it is not a normal vertical screen but horizontal. It is brilliant though, 256K. The keypad is well proportioned, nicely layed out and importantly, very comfortable. The internal memory is around 80MB, which is quite good, but then the huge flaw is the no memory card slot. The handset supports EDGE and bluetooth too, and of yes, it is extremely thin.

Being this thin could become a con, but if you really like the statement, then it is for you. This is probably why there is no memory card slot, because to be honest, the memory card may be thicker! *lol*.

There is no infrared on board, though IR isn't widely used. Amazingly enough the camera on board is 2MP, and it is pretty good, though not good enough to satisfy. The design is conservative, and this is mainly due to the thinness of the phone.

This phone really is not for everyone, and there are many flaws to this phone as a result of the size and design. But if design is for you, then I do not think this handset will disappoint - it certainly is an eye catcher.

Summary: At 6.9mm, you can't ask for much more
